About This Home
Enjoy the ultimate American Riviera lifestyle in this exquisite oceanfront estate resting on a gracious half-acre of prime California coastline. The inspiring contemporary residence was meticulously designed and crafted by noted architect, Tom Ochsner, four years ago with the goal of creating a sophisticated yet casual resort-style retreat. The interior spaces can best be described as modern elegance with an emphasis on showcasing sublime ocean views while creating an ideal indoor/outdoor lifestyle that this area is known for. The light-filled public rooms feature soaring ceilings, designer finishes, wide-plank white oak flooring and a gourmet kitchen/great room all providing seamless access to an irresistible view terrace. The home offers four private bedroom suites highlighted by a romantic master retreat complete with a fireplace, ocean view terrace, and spa-like bathroom. Additional enticing spaces include a media room, a gallery office and/or hang-out space with fabulous views through cascading windows, and a fun game room with a half-bath and stunning wine showcase behind glass doors. The private half-acre of grounds features towering palm trees, meandering paths, and exotic plantings providing the ambiance of a tropical resort. The final element of this enchanting property is the expansive oceanfront deck featuring a bubbling jacuzzi, lounge chairs and al-fresco dining table perfect for relaxing and taking in inspiring sunsets at day's end. Finally, a secret hideaway below the deck offers an incredible ocean view retreat unlike anything you have ever seen. This extraordinary estate embodies the essence of the American Riviera lifestyle, offering an unparalleled blend of luxurious living and natural beauty in a serene coastal environment.
